    Types Hurt & Heal (BUG TYPE WINS with 8 HP)

    in Onyx Arcade

    Posted

    Grass: 25

    Steel: 11

    Ground: 13

    Ice: 25

    Fight: 15

    Normal: 11

    Ghost: 24

    Dark: 15

    Bug: 24

    Rock: 14

    Poison: 11

     

    You know the drill from me by now. Also, Steel is also my second least favorite type which is why I've been ignoring it for now. It has a few Mons I do like or at least respect enough: Skarmory, Scizor, Bronzong. Many of the others are anywhere from "Eh...above average, but still neutral on it" (Aggron, Bisharp) to "Die die die die die" (Excadrill). But I don't want to get into a deep discussion here, so I'll just leave it at that.

    Well, I think it's safe to assume which two-three types are going to be the first to fall at this point.

     

    As for me, second verse, same as the first.

    Darius flinched a bit at the sudden music. He really did not need such a sudden electric tune, but the extra vigor was appreciated nonetheless.

     

    "Not really, but I'm not exactly in the position to really care about what they like or not at this moment, as long as they stay in line."

     

    He then took out the key that had been given to him by Rayne and walked over to the lone remaining chest, opening it.

     

    Move to G4, open chest with key.

    Darius heard Selia's shouts and started advancing carefully towards the source of them, still keeping an eye out for any more hostiles. He started hearing quiet sobbing that he soon learned was from a random mercenary that got intimidated by Myrdwyn.

     

    "...huh. Well, at least he won't be an issue, hopefully."

     

    Move to E7.

    [Fixed] Bug Bite cures status when it shouldn't.

    Posted

    So, fighting Titania on my Water Mono. Her Mega Scizor is burned and it uses Bug Bite on my Mantine holding a Cheri Berry, which cures paralysis. The Scizor consumes the held berry and gets cured of the burn when it should not be cured of it, again, due to it being a Cheri Berry.

     

    Can easily be replicated by having a burned Mon use Bug Bite on a Mon with a Cheri Berry.

    So you are not even considering to use the Crabomination? 

    ...right. I had completely forgot about it. To be honest, I'm not planning on using it. If I need a physical powerhouse alongside the ones I am already using, I can always use Snowslash and Beartic instead, Slush Rush gives them a huge boost in speed.

    Well, it's been a while, but we have reached the next episode, E17. While it is still the community release, I believe that it was time to continue this run.

     

    Without further ado, let's get started with my adventure through E17.

     

    Spoiler

    The first thing I did was start exploring everything ever for new items, Pokemon and other assorted goodies. It did not take long for me to start increasing the size of my Ice power.

    First of all, the Mon I was waiting for the most, A-Vulpix. She would replace Frosty the Aurorus from my rotation. He did well, very well in fact, but I feel like it's about time I moved on. As for Shinori here, quite a beauty, isn't she?

    Sonic the A-Sandshrew here...alas, I never actually used him on the run. My team is already so well established that even with Slush Rush, I couldn't really fit him in. Still, I'm sure he would do amazingly well, given the chance.

     

    More in-depth exploration would lead me to a number of items, both in the desert and out of it: Another Focus Sash, a number of seeds and various memories, new TM's and other assorted goodies. Part of the exploration led me to an extra-special sidequest.

    Meet Ferocity. Despite having had to sacrifice a few of my non-Ice type Pokemon (And I feel bad about it...) I believe the payout is well worth it. Despite not having used it much, it's in a condition that I can bust it out at any point and it'll perform well.

     

    However, I must say: Who thought putting the Ice Memory at Teknite Cave, near the end of it, was a good idea? Because let me tell you, it is not. Ametrine Mountain would have been a much more appropriate place to put it in. Like, I dunno, same place where you get the Riolu egg? Just saying.

     

    Anyway. After spending a lot of time Grinding Shinori and Ferocity up, it was finally time for the desert. First of all, just so you know, this is a run where I battled Taka in the WTC, therefore this is the Zekrom route. Anyway, I spent a bunch of time just exploring the desert, collecting a number of items, inclusing a number of Magical Seeds, a few TM's, the Ice Memory, a Focus Sash and an assortment of other stuff. Eventually I got to the Scrapyard and after quickly clearing the puzzle out, I got to the small community waiting on the other side, where I happened to run into a certain someone special: Corrin-Rouge. After some words, it was time to fight. He actually put up a good fight (Inferno Overdrive caught me off-guard), but by the end of it, he was down to his "Ace". As in, his level 5 Magikarp. You can imagine how well it went for him.

     

    All in all, the journey felt a little...eh, a little boring and empty, but, well, joke's on me for not seeing two episodes into the future, huh? Whatever. Anyway, eventually I arrived in Fairy Tale land. After fighting through a number of Mons, including a Scizor and a pair of Nidos, I got knocked out by Lin. Then it was time to fight Zekrom after agreeing to trust Titania. Zekrom did not last long, in case you're wondering. Ninetales and Glaceon broke it down quickly.

     

    After Titania ganks Lin, it was time for the battle I was not looking forward to the most.

     

    Vs Titania

     

    The battle took me a number of attempts in order for me to assemble the pieces of the puzzle. My first attempt and first strategy fell apart on the first try because, apparently, Excadrill OHKO's Mamoswine at +6 Defense with Smart Strike. Slowly, I was able to piece together the puzzle, between losing to Snowslash, Excadrill, Mega Scizor and, once, to Aegislash. Furthermore, Destiny Bond was bugged, preventing me from taking out her Mega Scizor out like that.

     

    So, what was the solution? Magical Seed on Mamoswine to block Snowslash. Using an X Defend on it to force out Excadrill on turn 3, right into an Earthquake after Mist was up on turn 2 (Snowslash used A-Veil at that point.) After that, there was a bit of luck involved. If Titania used an Ultra Potion on Snowslash, I was good. If she had Snowslash Iron Head Mamo, it was as good as an instant reset. After that, she sent out her Mega Scizor. For this, I needed to use Focus Sash Froslass and Magical Seed Lapras to wear it down. It was a painful affair, but, eventually, Mega Scizor fell. Klefki and Empoleon both fell to an EQ from Mamo each.

     

    Then came Aegislash.

     

    First time, it immediately SD'd, pretty much dooming me. Second time, it went straight on the offensive. It KO'd Mamo and Lapras, but Weavile was able to jump in and knock it out. I had a Focus Sash on it, but I did not need it.

    Just saying, but this image is my Mark of Pride right now. Not even Titania can do more than slow down this train.

     

    With that, Flash Cannon and the 15'th badge were ours.

     

    After this, I went and did the Mega Z-Ring quest. In case you're wondering, I think it's been too overhyped as an item and is not as good as people claim it to be. And no, I'm not using either of Ice's Mega's. Anyway...after that, it was time to deal with Amaria.

     

    Getting to her was a pain because I went off in completely the wrong direction and ended up swimming in circles. Eventually, though, I was able to get to her and, after some chasing, was able to battle her.

     

    Vs Amaria

     

    I went doubles against her. The battle was...very very easy. Air Balloon Froslass + Air Balloon A-Tales basically destroyed her team. The only two Mons I lost were Froslass to Surf spam and Lapras to a surprise Gigavolt Havoc. But, it was all merely delaying the inevitable victory of mine.

    With that, got a TM I can't even use and another badge. And with that, E17 was done. A bit more exploration and a few more TM's later, I am ready to wait for E18 to come out and it's new challenges.

     

    Finally, the main team used and current core team:

    I hope you enjoyed this newest update and I hope to see you in E18.

    [Known/Fixed]Destiny Bond not working.

    in Known Bug Bin

    Posted

    I was fighting Titania on my Ice Mono and I got to Scizor. My plan for it was to use Froslass and a Focus Sash to take it down with a Destiny Bond.

     

    However, when Mega Scizor took down Froslass, it didn't faint alongside Froslass.

     

    There were no actions taken by the Froslass after the Destiny Bond was put up, meaning it should have been a double KO.

     

    The field was Fairy Tale, the Pokemon in question were Froslass and Mega Scizor.
